[quote author=pansophic post=127462982]Do you ever consider at this time we are that God is very concerned about how we dress ourselves as his children, right from the very hair on our heads to the sole of our feet?

God is very interested in your appearance if truly you belong to him and he seeks your total obedience to his word he has given us. Here are some of the things God said to us in the Bible.

He said;

"Do not conform to the pattern of this world but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will." Romans 12:2

And also;

"Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, love for the Father is not in them." 1 John 2:15

These verses highlight the distinction between believers and the world, emphasizing the challenges and choices faced by those seeking to live in accordance with their faith.

The very "world" the Bible is making reference to are the ungodly things we find around us. From the latest trends to the latest fashion, to the new gadgets, to the glorified beauty norms and products and even to the lifestyle of the world, Our jealous God doesn't want us in any form to be one with them. Thus, he gave us those instructions.

Loving the world and the things in it only brings enmity and separation from God. As followers of his word, we need to understand this and make our adjustments where necessary if we ever desire to be where he is. This may be hard for us to accept but it is necessary and rewarding to our souls. By the guidance and support of the Holy Spirit, we shall conquer all there is to conquer.

Thereby, the issue of hairstyle comes in. What manner of hairstyle do you (if you have a good level of discernment) think Jesus had when he was alive here on earth? What manner of hairstyle do you believe the apostles and godly women in those days put on? If you are a honest person within yourself, you will know that it definitely has no resemblance with the arrogant and lustful appearance of today.

I'm speaking about hairstyles such as

1. Afro, Fade, Galaxy, Phunk, Sports Waves and the like

As true believers in Christ, the names of these haircuts are supposed to irritate us alone compared to wearing them. They give the vibe of worldliness and canality and do not speak of or glorify God at all. Their design is of the ungodly world of which God himself is enemy to and shouldn't be put on, practiced or admired by anyone who claims to belong to him.

Remember Leviticus 19:27 (NIV): "Do not cut the hair at the sides of your head or clip off the edges of your beard."

This scripture emphasizes on the detestable appearance of hairstyles which involves the cutting of the hair at the sides of the head such as those mentioned above. Most boys and men alike today act contrary to this verse by cutting the corners of their hair and leaving the middle to be full. This will only bring God's judgment upon us as we are being disobedient to his word in that verse. You may feel, "this is far stretched and insignificant today" or "it applies to only a specific set of people".

Dear friend, it applies to all God's children. God doesn't seek half obedience or service but a total of our personality ranging from the heart, to the mind and even our bodily appearance. You need to accept this message as many has fallen and been judged because of it.

2. Attachments, Tinting, relaxing, stretching and perming of the hair:

1 Peter 3:3-4 (NIV): "Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as elaborate hairstyles and the wearing of gold jewelry or fine clothes. Rather, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God’s sight."

1 Timothy 2:9-10 (NIV): "I also want the women to dress modestly, with DECENCY AND PROPRIETY, adorning themselves, not with elaborate hairstyles or gold or pearls or expensive clothes, but with good deeds, appropriate for women who profess to worship God."

A deep research on the origin of these things will reveal that these things are from the ungodly world and the devil, not from the Father who chose us. They are the vices of the devil to trap as many women as he can to fall with him to destruction and putting them on will make this a reality for you when you leave this world.

The Bible urges women to be decent in their appearance as God wants there to be a stark difference in appearance between his own daughters and that of the world which by design tinting, relaxing, perming and attachments to the hair won't give. Yes dear reader, this is true though you may be told otherwise, accept the truth and make adjustments where necessary as a daughter of the Lord you are - to be natural in your appearance as he had created you. Keeping your hair long, neat and well dressed without any forms of artificial beauty attached to it. You're beautiful in the eyes of the Lord just the way you are and making artificial changes to your appearance will only separate you from God and puts you up for his judgment.

Romans 12:1 (NIV): "Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship."

3. The total scraping of the hairs on the head or keeping of long hair as a Man.

Ezekiel 44:20 (NIV): "They must not shave their heads or let their hair grow long, but they are to keep the hair of their heads trimmed."

Scraping your hair until your scalp appears is detestable unto God just as the style of keeping a long hair as a man. God spoke his mind, his very heart of what he desires for his people in that verse and other verses in his word. If he had no issues with such, he wouldn't have made it known as God never gives empty words or speaks to just to fill the silence. You need to understand that you aren't just any ordinary individual but one who is chosen by God through salvation as a priest unto him forever. Thus, you have to live your life in accordance with that which pleases him as this and only this is your true service to Him. Doing otherwise will only make you a rebel and a sinner before him.

1 Peter 2:9 (NIV): "But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light."

Hello guys, I'm a 25 year old male and close to over 6'2 inches tall. Right from childhood, I've always had this thin physique that has made me look very lanky. Infact, I've never experienced what it feels like to put on weight or be fat 😁.
Over the years, i have done a number of research and it i read that i have the endomorph body type or something like that, but i really want to bulk up so that it will fit my height.
I can't afford to go on a diet or eat 5-6 times a day as suggested by the internet, but can i get bulky if i join the gym?

Forget gym, eat food first. You can't turn a pencil to a bamboo

Tyla owns it!

And what is Amapiano by Asake doing there?

nairalanda1:
600billion seems like a lot of money, until you realize that it would cost 1.3 trillion naira to build a 2500mW power station...for a country where Lagos alone needs 10000MW a day for 24 hour power supply.

600 billion is also meant to cover the losses that the sector sustains in keeping the price of power low....which may be in the trillions of naira.

Like one nairalander said, we don't have power because at the end of the day, we ain't ready to pay the money needed to give us 24 hours power.

Till then, let there be darkness.

P.S For anyone quoting me to abuse me or call me APC supporter, read the PwC paper on power in Nigeria...Solving the Liquidity crunch in the Nigerian power sector.


I'm no longer responding to mentions. Most of y'all are frustrated APC or PDP supporters who just want to be abusive. And I ain't playing with babies like you no more. Grow up and engage like mature people, or keep up the abuse. Abuse only shows that you are still infantile.

Nonsense! Nonsense!

What about some other poor west African countries that are having constant electricity at least in their cities. Is Nigeria now the poorest country on Earth that we can't have stable electricity at least in our major cities. Imagine major cities like Lagos and Abuja still struggling with electricity in 2023?

Even India with a billion population with many poor people are now having stable electricity in their cities and most rural areas are being electrified and having stable electricity. Yet guys like you think every Nigeria need to be a millionaire before we can have electricity.

How do u guys even think and defend this bad Government? Like how? Since 1960 !

You just founf the most abundant mineral on Earth

You will be lucky to sell it for 50 naira

I have always wanted to ask this question, at what age is the best to commit suicide?
I figure out, if one wants to escape this present reality and not reincarnate into this present state or life, is there a best age to commit suicide?

I feel if one commit suicide at the wrong age, one may be sent back to Nigeria or a much tougher life

I have always wanted to create a thread about it but I don't want to be criticized

Lol, you're a clown
